Torrance City Council Candidate Aurelio Mattucci doesn’t just talk about being involved in his community, he lives it. Aurelio’s campaign is built around four major issues: Public Safety, Education, Budget and Curb Appeal. For Mattucci, Curb Appeal isn’t just a real estate buzz word, it is a way of life. With his volunteer organization, The Mattucci Project, this longtime Torrance resident proves he is not afraid to get his hands dirty.
Aurelio Mattucci can often be seen out by the PCH or on other Torrance streets on a weekend afternoon in a bright yellow vest picking up trash. He founded The Mattucci Project in the summer of 2011 with the simple mission to “Improve our cities, one curb at a time.” With a crew of hard working passionate volunteers, the Mattucci Project will come to any local business or residence in need to help remove trash and weeds, trim overgrowth and distribute educational materials.
Aurelio believes in the community as a whole helping each other to build safer and cleaner neighborhoods. Many residents mistakenly believe that their taxes pay for services such as weed and trash removal. However, the Los Angeles Municipal Code, Chapter VI, Section 62.104 actually puts the responsibility for property management squarely on the property owner. When an owner cannot afford to or is incapable of maintaining their front yard or commercial property, The Mattucci Project is here to help. The general goals and philosophies of the organization are to encourage property owners to help each other and that it doesn’t matter where the trash came from, anyone can pick it up. When these volunteers take care of a problem, they hope others will be inspired to do the same.
The Mattucci Project is an all volunteer non-profit organization in the process of obtaining 501 c3 status. To get involved in the clean up, or for property owners in need of assistance, visit www.mattucciproject.org or "Like" The Mattucci Project at www.facebook.com/MattucciProject to stay informed about upcoming cleanup events. The city belongs to everyone and everyone benefits by lending a hand to keeping it beautiful.
